Rebirth in the 70s: A rough man’s husband pinches his waist and dotes on him

The second sister was gone for more than an hour before coming back.

When he came back, everyone in the family was there, playing with Zhangzhu in the living room. Lin Qingping didn't ask anything, and the second sister didn't notice anything unusual.

It was not until noon, when Zhangzhu took a nap and the second sister accompanied Lin Qingping back to her room to sleep, that Lin Qingping asked her, "What happened?"

The second sister helped her lie down, "Brother-in-law, you are still not honest!"

"What?" Lin Qingping frowned.

"His parents didn't go back at all. He settled them somewhere else, rented a house, and then coaxed you to send them back." The second sister said this, still a little angry, and then advised her, "But I don't think you need to worry about this. Anyway, at least he didn't settle them at home, and didn't bring them to you. Just let him do what he wants. Live your life well and take good care of your health. It's more important than anything else."

Is that right?

Lin Qingping said nothing.

"Besides, they are his parents after all. He should take care of his parents and he will be right if he tells others about it. Sister, let's not mind these trivial matters!" The second sister covered her with a blanket and whispered to her.

Lin Qingping nodded and asked her again, "Did you see him? Did he see you?"

"No." The second sister said, "I was hiding. I only saw his parents come out and talk to him."

However, the second sister's attitude changed 180 degrees.

Gu Juncheng came back two hours later.

By then, everyone had woken up from their nap. Gu Youlian washed the grapes and cut the watermelon, and the whole family was talking in the living room downstairs.

He just barged in like this, with a tired look on his face just like last time.

"Dad!" Zhangzhu pouted and shouted at him, "Zhuzhu, I miss you, Dad! No, go home!"

Gu Juncheng smiled, "Isn't Dad home now? Dad will hold you?"

He walked over.

Zhangzhu was originally fed watermelon juice by the second sister in her arms. The second sister was very patient with Zhangzhu, and was always gentle and smiling. She was reluctant to let Zhangzhu suffer even the slightest bit of grievance, and she never even spoke loudly in front of Zhangzhu.

However, the moment Gu Juncheng stretched out his hand, the second sister held the pearl tightly and her face turned ugly. "Brother-in-law, you should wash your hands and change your clothes first. It's dirty outside."

Gu Juncheng was a little embarrassed, his hands frozen there. He glanced at his second sister, and finally, he withdrew his hands and went into the bathroom.

Everyone in the living room felt that the second sister's words were a bit abrupt. At least, the second sister had never been so obviously impolite to Gu Juncheng before.

Gu Youlian and Zhiyuan didn't say anything, only Zhangzhu raised the question, "Auntie, Dad, it's not dirty."

Her little brows were slightly wrinkled. Even at such a young age, she knew that dirty was a bad word.

The second sister explained to her, "Auntie didn't say that Dad is dirty, she said that the outside is dirty. There is a lot of dust and germs outside. You should develop the habit of washing your hands and changing clothes after coming back from outside!"

Zhang Zhu seemed to understand but not quite. Her little brows were still furrowed. She nodded her head slightly and looked at her hands. "Zhu Zhu, we are at home. It's not dirty."

"Yes, we are all clean at home, without any dirt." The second sister seemed to say it unintentionally, but it shocked Gu Youlian and Zhiyuan so much that they suddenly looked up at her.

The second sister, on the other hand, was very natural, as if nothing had happened, and continued to feed Zhangzhu watermelon juice. At this time, Gu Juncheng came out of the bathroom after washing his hands, head and face. He must have heard these words, right?

so what?

The second sister snorted secretly, she was just saying it for him to hear!

Gu Juncheng didn't say anything. He lowered his head and walked past them to change his clothes.

After changing into clean clothes and coming down, Zhangzhu couldn't wait to be hugged by her father.

Even if the second sister was unwilling, she had no choice but to give the pearl away.

Zhangzhu was particularly happy in her father's arms. She wanted to feed her father grapes and even patted him on the face. The second sister felt very uncomfortable and got up and went upstairs.

"Second sister, where are you going?" Lin Qingping stopped her and asked.

"I'm going to my room. I have an application to write. I'll come down when I'm done." The second sister couldn't stay any longer. She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, she would get angry when facing Gu Juncheng.

"Then go ahead and don't delay important matters." Lin Qingping said hurriedly.

The second sister has returned from abroad, but has not yet found a job. The Yun family wants to arrange a job for her in a department that matches her major. The second sister plans to write an application herself.

However, Lin Qingping was wondering if her second sister was hiding something from her?

This feeling was really not good at all, but she didn't show it and just continued to chat and laugh with Gu Youlian.

She believed that if all her relatives were hiding something from her, it would not be a malicious lie. There must be reasons why they could not or did not want to tell her. Perhaps they all told her white lies because of her illness.

But since that day, Gu Juncheng never went out again. His life was the same every day: three meals a day, buying groceries and cooking, taking care of his daughter, and accompanying Lin Qingping.

It’s just that the second sister’s attitude towards him has always been bad, and Lin Qingping feels that, after all, the second sister and Yunqi are newlyweds, so how can a couple live separately?

Although Yunqi didn't say anything and often came to see her, she, as an elder sister, couldn't be so unreasonable, so she forcefully sent her second sister back home.

The second sister was reluctant, but she couldn't persuade her, so she changed to going home to sleep every day and still come to accompany her during the day.

That day was Xiaoyuanlian’s birthday. When Xiaomai came home, she talked about this with Zhiyuan. Xiaoyuanlian invited everyone to go to the park to play together.

Zhiyuan shook his head and indicated that he would not go.

His mother was sick and he had no mood to go out and play.

Lin Qingping heard this and disagreed, so she asked Xiaomai to quickly call Zhiyuan out to play together, "It's rare to have like-minded friends in life. You should have been good friends since kindergarten, but friends also need to get along, and the more you get along, the closer you become. You and Xiaomai are different. Xiaomai lives in the capital, so it doesn't matter if you miss one time. You finally made it to the one time, but if you don't go, you will go back to the island in a while and won't see each other for a long time."

Perhaps it was the words "I'll go back to the island after a while" that touched Zhiyuan. He was a little moved, and his eyes even turned red.

Lin Qingping continued, "My illness is not an urgent matter, and you are not a doctor. What else can I do if you go out?"

After several persuasions, Zhiyuan was finally convinced to go out and play.

When Zhangzhu saw her brother going out, she became anxious and wanted to go out and play too. Lin Qingping simply let them all go. Gu Juncheng also went with them and took Zhangzhu to play with her brothers and sisters.

As a result, the bustling home suddenly became deserted.

Gu Youlian will go to the store in the afternoon, leaving only her second sister and Lin Qingping at home.

"Sister, why don't we go out for some fresh air? You stay at home every day, why don't you go out for a walk and breathe some fresh air?" suggested the second sister.

Lin Qingping thought about it and some inexplicable emotions arose in his heart.

Seven years ago, she brought her family from her hometown to the capital to study, leaving many footprints and memories here.

When people are between life and death, they tend to recall the past.

Lin Qingping now misses the time when she first arrived in the capital. That was the real beginning of her and Gu Juncheng's life.

"Go ahead." She suddenly felt interested in walking around and taking a look at the places she had visited during her four years in college.

First, they went to Wu Tianjiao’s department store.

She just has low energy now and walks slowly, but with her second sister accompanying her, she can just take the bus and go directly to the mall, so there is no problem.

"As for me, I want to go shopping for clothes and see how Director Hu and his team's clothes are doing. When I get tired of shopping, I'll go to Tianjiao's store to have dessert." She has officially retired from the garment factory. It is said that Xiaoqin was hired as a designer by the factory during her college years. Xiaoqin, who was trained in a professional field, must be more capable than her.

They successfully found the counter where the clothing factory was located and admired the clothes in the store one by one.

The women's clothing in the store seems a bit divided, with two completely different styles. One style is fashionable, beautiful, and full of trendy vitality, while the other's design seems to have remained in the past few years.

"This one looks good, sister, try it on." The second sister picked up a set and said, "Wear it, it will look pretty..."

The second sister choked up at this point, not daring to look at her sister’s face. She regretted that she spoke too quickly. She didn’t know if the word “pretty” would hurt her sister’s heart. Her sister’s hair…

Seeing her like this, Lin Qingping smiled instead, "How can I try it if you don't help me? This set looks like it was designed by Xiaoqin. Xiaoqin is successful now, but every time we come to the capital, it's summer vacation, so we can't see her every time."

Although Lin Qingping looked very relaxed, the second sister was still very nervous. Lin Qingping pulled her hand and went in to try on clothes.

Before she started trying, the second sister was just about to unbutton Lin Qingping's clothes when she heard a familiar voice coming from outside.

"Lanxiang, come and take a look. This dress is beautiful." It was Liu Fen's voice.

"Auntie, this dress...isn't it expensive?" the young woman said in a soft and gentle voice.

"Save where you should and spend where you should! I know you are a good thrifty kid, but you can't save on dressing up." Liu Fen said, "You don't know how good my daughter-in-law is at dressing herself up. You should also learn to dress up and make Chengzi happy!"
